Tho issuo was prooipitatod quito uooxpootcdly. Tho loaders had doorcoi that th) ro apportionmont bill Bhould bo ta'ton up Thursday, butboforoit oould bo called, as a matter of privilego, Mr- Olmstead or fonnsylvania offered a rcso'ution reoiting tho alleged abridgment of tho suffrage in Louisiana.

CREATED A STIR Tho rosolution oroatod a sonsation. It was a surprise oven to sovnral of tho Republican leaders. Tho loadors of tho JDemooratio sido sought in vain to hoal oil tho rosolution with points of ordor, but tho speaker ruled against them. Thov then began a filibuster, openly avowing that thoy would fight to tho bitter ond overy proposition looking to tho roduotion of roprosontation from tho southorn States. OUR REPUBLICAN ALLIES Sovoral of tho Ropublioans wcro so oretly in sympathy with them and their indiffjronoo to the fato of tho Olmstead resolution in tho end gavo tho opposition tho victory of today, any of them quietly paired with ab.?> vnt Democrats, leaving thoir absent I{leaguoa not pairod. As a result, vhen tho question of o msideration was raisod against tho rosolution, it was defeated 81 83 Although tho vote was a strict party voto, two llipubli cans, Landis of Indiana, and Mann of Illinois, answorod prosont but did not voto.

Mr Uiohardson of Tonnes see, the minority leader, interrupted the reading to ask whether tho resolu tionreq tired unanimous consent "It does not,"rop!iod tho speaker. "It is offered as a matter of privilege" "1 make tho point that tho resolution does not oonstituto a matter of nrivi lege," said Mr. Riohardson. "The reading has not proooedcd far enough to determino that point," responded the spoaker. NO QUORUM PRK8ENT. Mr. Underwood of Alabama immediately made tho point that thero was no quorum presont. The speakerglanood about the house. Evidently there was no quorum pres ent. "The oha.r will count," ho said. The house was oountcd and when the speaker announced 141 presont?not a quorum?Mr. Underwood immediately moved an adjournment. The ayes and nays wero demanded and obtained upon this motion. During the roll oall there were hurried consultations on both sides of tho house. Many of the Republicans were taken as muoh by urpriso as the Domoorats. The latter deoided to filibuster to the lastditoh. The motion to adjourn was lost 68 to 69; answering present but not vot log 14; ooted present 2; total 179. The speaker inoluded himself in order to make uptho quorum. When tho reading of the resolution was oonoluded Mr. Riohardson insisted that the resolution was not privileged. Ho argued that the resolution should go to a committee. Mr. Olmstead in reply argued that under the oomtitution, matters affeotinp the reapportionment of representatives were of tho highest constitutional privilege and oitod an elaborate opinion of Speaker K lifer, in tho fortyseventh oongress, in support of his position. If ATMS OP PBIVILIOI. Speaker Randall, he said, had also held that an apportionment bill was a matter of the highest privilege. His resolution, he contended, Booking as it did to determine tho constitutional basis of representation, was equally privileged. The house, he argued, WW II could not aot intelligently unless it was advired in what State? and to what extoot the suffrage of oititens of the United Statos had boon abridged Mr. Olmstead mid the resolution touched the dignity of the houHoitsolf If tho suffrage had boen abridged in ocrtain States thon members wore unjustly and unconstitutionally holding s* atsupon this floor and this oonsti tilted an invasion of tho dignity of the houso. Tho matter dealt with by tho rosolu iien might also affeot tho oleotisn of a president of tho United States, a matter hold ropoatedly to bo a matter of high privilege. Mr. Olmstcad wai willing to rost his oaso upon the plain mardate of the constitution. Mr. ll'ohardson mado a brief response to Mr. Olmstead. Hooonocdcd that an apportionment bill was privileged, but oontendod that tho resolution itself was simply ono of inquiry to ascertain facts which might or might not be truo. ' Tho resolution oloarly rooites that in oertain States suffrage, has boen ahridgod without roduotion of repro* sontatioD," interposed Mr Olmstoad. "Tho 'whereas' makes suoh a allegation," replied Mr. Uiohardsoo, "but tho resolution is Birop'y ono of inquiry." "llowoanwo apportion constitutionally," aikcd Mr. Mahon of Pcnnsylva nia, "if wo do not know tho faots? How can wo asoortain tho truth of tho allegation that hundreds of thousands of eitiaens are disfranchised?" "An investigation oan bo made," re plied Mr. llinhardson, 'but it must bo mado in tho regular way." THE SPEAKER'S RULING. Tho spcarkor then announood that ho question was oloarly Bottled by S otion 2 of Artiolo 14 of tho oonstitu lion, whioh ho dircotod tho olerk to read It rolatod to tho reduction of roprcsontatiou in States whoro tho suffrage was abridged. Tho rosolution and iti preamble, said tho spoaker, alleged that ootain oonditions existed whioh tho constitution exprossly prohibited and it must bo paused upon by a highor iu'o than those of tho houso ?tho constitution of tho United States. Ho said ho never expeotod to pass upon a question moro simple. Ho ovorrulod tho point of ordor. Mr. Undorwood immodiatoly raised tho question of consideration against tho rosolution. On a rising voto it af AArl at on AO noAa 7A T1%a uivvvt n/vo vi/, uvua i v. 1 11U djri'D HI1U noes woro demanded and ordorcd. Tho speakor announood tho voto 81 to consider tho resolution, 83 against and 5 prosont but not voting?not a quorum. Ho dircoted a oall of tho house, pond ing whioh Mr. Underwood again moved an adjournment. Tho rising vote rosultod ayos 72, noes 54, but Mr. Olmstoad demanded tho ayos and noop, whioh woro ordored. Tho motion to adjourn was oarriod 77 to 75 and accordingly at 2 o'olook tho houso ad j jurned. Farmed Out a Jail. Adispatoh from Uarkoraburg W. Va , says ''John M. Buokloy, the now jailer, who took ohargo of the Wood oouoty hastile on tho first of the yoar, paid Sheriff eleot Dudley $3,000 for the privilege of assuming complete control of that institution for tho next four vcarp. Jailor Buckley will pay all tho expenses of tho establishment and will bo entitled to all tho roooipts, official and otherwise. This praotioe of "farming out" tho jail is no now thing in this oouaty, and had its orign in a peculiar custom which hat obtained hore for many years. Tho jail is a roomy building, and by right of long established preoodent, its koopor is permitted to oonduot it on a tiair-priaon and half tavern basis Ho is generally a oountry-man, with numborloss friends from the rural die triots, who patronizo his establishment in prcferonoo to tho rogular hostelrios, and during sessions of oourt and other "bigdajs" in town tho jail isorowded with throngs of willing as well asunwilling tuest*.

The Manufacturer's Kooord says: "During its last session Clomson oollcgo, South Carolina, had 461 students. Fifteen moro mariculatod for tho prosont session, while applications for admissions of throo hundred others woro rofusod beoauso of lack of faoilities for them. Tho popularity of tho institution is attributod by Prosident Hartxog in annual roport to tho liberal terms for students, to tho demand of the time* for industrial training, and to consequent demand for graduates, this in t?omo linos being greater than the supply. This showing of sucoes* is gratifying to all workers for tho extension of teohnioal training in tho South, and it should onoouravo South Carolina laai*. lators to inoroaso liberality toward the institution that is so oroditably fitting the yoaog moo of tho state to take their plaoos io tho industrial prooesalon of their oountry."
